Dump 1 large can of peaches with syrup into a 9x13 baking pan.

Dump 1 box of yellow cake mix on top of the peaches. Spread loosely so everything is covered but leaving some lumps and unevenness.

Slice 1 stick of unsalted butter thinly, placing the slices over the cake mix, spreading out so tgere is even coverage.

Bake in a 375 oven for approximately 30 minutes, until it is golden and bubbly.

Serve warm with ice cream.

* You can do this with canned pineapples in syrup, or with canned cherry, apple, blueberry, etc pie fillings. If the cans are small, use 2.

5 minutes max prep and it will disappear in minutes.


This is delicious, my mom used to make it, but it's not cobbler. It's dump cake.


Dump cake is just another name for cobbler.

Taking this a step further - nothing that requires a freezer or refrigeration if you aren't the one hosting. Nothing with whipped cream, no cheesecake, etc. Only things that can sit out at room temp (or even outdoors depending on the setup) unless host confirms they have space in the fridge/freezer


Sounds like OP is hosting.

Strawberry shortcake - serve each item individually so each person can build their own, or have just strawberries, strawberries & whipped cream if they are gluten free, etc.

S’more bars - graham cracker crust, chocolate ganache layer, toasted mini marshmallows on top, cut into small bars.

Lemon bars.

Best is a buffet of all three.
